Russian bombs are closer than the West thinks – Stefanchuk

The speaker of parliament called on NATO to give Ukraine weapons that could change the course of the war

Российские бомбы ближе, чем кажется Западу – Стефанчук

Ukraine needs practical NATO assistance in repelling Russian aggression, Verkhovna Rada Speaker Ruslan Stefanchuk said in an interview with Fox News.

According to the speaker, the alliance could provide our country with military equipment that will change the course of the war: tanks, combat aircraft, air defense systems and more.

“We are not asking NATO to send troops to defend Ukraine. We are just saying: close the sky, send us weapons, and we will do everything else, “he said.

Stefanchk reminded that Ukraine is now actually covering NATO's eastern flank. And if Russia can break through this defense, it will attack other European countries – Poland, Lithuania, Estonia, Latvia. Polls show that most Russians support such an aggressive policy.

The day before, the Russians launched heavy rocket attacks on Lviv , a Ukrainian city 100 km from the Polish capital, where US President Joe Biden was speaking at the time.

“This means that Russian bombs are not as mystically distant from the United States as one might imagine. With such cynical actions, Putin challenged America and the Americans, “Stefanchuk said.

The Speaker thanked the US Government for its solidarity with the Ukrainian people, military and humanitarian aid to Ukraine at this difficult time, and tough sanctions against Russia.

“But we cannot stop taking measures to force Russia to stop this brutal war against Ukraine,” he added.

According to him, all Russian banks should be disconnected from the SWIFT system and close all loopholes to circumvent sanctions. It is necessary that all world companies cut ties with Russia and leave Russian markets. This will leave the Russian military machine without money to continue the war.
